Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting '(' in C:\wamp\www\study_group\includes\functions.php on line 19
I got this error and this syntax is from 8 to 19th line. - <?php
-
$subject_set = get_all_subjects();
-
while ($subject = mysql_fetch_array($subject_set)) {
-
echo "<li>{$subject["menu_name"]}</li>";
-
$page_set = get_pages_for_subject($subject["id"]);
-
echo "<ul class=\"pages\">";
-
while ($page = mysql_fetch_array($page_set)) {
-
echo "<li>{$page["menu_name"]}</li>";
-
}
-
echo "</ul>";
-
}
-
?>
end of 19th line.
I'd be your slave after this so please help me.

With PHP, you're lucky if the error is on the line it tells you.
Post the full code, so we can match up the line numbers.
Remember to use [code] tags! (just highlight your code, then hit the # button on the editor).
Cheers.

Thanx.
I really think theres no parenthesis missing in this code. since i've been figuring this since yesterday. And I really need help. - <?php require_once("includes/connection.php"); ?>
-
<?php require_once("includes/functions.php"); ?>
-
<?php include("includes/header.php"); ?>
-
<table id=structure>
-
<tr>
-
<td id="navigation">
-
<ul class="subjects">
-
<?php
-
$subject_set = get_all_subjects();
-
while ($subject = mysql_fetch_array($subject_set)) {
-
echo "<li>{$subject["menu_name"]}</li>";
-
$page_set = get_pages_for_subject($subject["id"]);
-
echo "<ul class=\"pages\">";
-
while ($page = mysql_fetch_array($page_set)) {
-
echo "<li>{$page["menu_name"]}</li>";
-
}
-
echo "</ul>";
-
}
-
?>
-
</ul>
-
</td>
-
<td id="page">
-
<h2>About Us</h2>
-
-
</td>
-
</tr>
-
</table>
-
<?php require("includes/footer.php"); ?>

Silly us! Looking back at the error, it says the problem is with C:\wamp\www\study_group\includes\functions.php.
So, post up the code from that file.
Cheers.

Check out line 18. Look at the function name.

@ second part. Huh? I don't understand your question. Also, if this question has nothing to do with the original thread: post a new thread asking the question.
Best regards,
Your owner,
Mark.

Okay. But then I'm gonna do that later. I think I'm gonna have to do and learn this on my own for now. After all you don't need a dog, you actually own lots of dogs here.
